The Consumers Price Index (CPI) provides one of New Zealand's best known statistics, the inflation rate. It measures the change in the price of purchases made every day by New Zealand households. This resource looks at the Consumers Price Index (how the CPI is calculated, who uses the CPI, expenditure weights and groups, limitations of the CPI and the 1999 CPI review) and other price indexes, such as the Capital Goods Price Index, Producers Price Index, Food Price Index, and overseas trade indexes. This resource summarises inflation in New Zealand, providing up-to-date tables and graphs, commentary and background notes.
